Please don't force the reply-to.  Let us use the list-reply command of
our email programs when we want to reply to the list.  If anyone wants
list-reply to be the usual reply action, they can tell their email
program.

If someone's email program does not support mailing list use properly,
then they should consider upgrading or using a filter in front of it
to give the settings that they want.  There is a perfectly good
"List-Post" header telling mail clients where to send list-replies.
(IETF RFC-2369 I think.)

I have some notes about list-friendly email clients that people have
sent in at http://mjr.towers.org.uk/comp/list-mua and Claws Mail
looks like the best, last I heard.

If a mail client doesn't support List-Post properly, report the bug -
and fix it if you can (it's free and open source software, right?)

Hope that informs,
